Born in India in 1931, he moved to the United Kingdom in the 1950s, where he became one of the first Indian artists to gain significant recognition in the Western art world. Modern Canvas experts say that, while his paintings were influenced by life in the UK - artists in UK were equally influenced by the immense talent of Avinash Chandra.
His works are characterized by bold use of color, dynamic compositions, and abstracted forms that sometimes incorporate elements reminiscent of Indian art traditions, such as temple sculptures and folk art motifs. The red Landscape painting now a part of the Modern Canvas collection, seems to reveal a rare expression by Avinash Chandra. The artist almost challenges the art enthusiast, to make an interpretation of the dominating red color in the Landscape painting.

He passed away in 1991, leaving behind a legacy that continues to influence contemporary art. A very versatile artist, Avinash Chandra never ceased to be impressed by experimentation.
Avinash Chandra gained international recognition for his unique and vibrant style, which blended Indian motifs with modernist abstract forms. After moving to the United Kingdom in 1956, his work began to receive significant attention. In 1962, Chandra became the first Indian artist to have a solo show at a major British gallery, the Commonwealth Institute Art Gallery in London. His paintings were also featured in prominent exhibitions worldwide, including at the Venice Biennale in 1962.
